Cannon Brewery, Sheffield, October 2012

Well we had a brilliant day in Sheffield a couple of months ago, visiting George Barnselys, Cannon Brewery, the Ski Park and oh Wetherspoons and the gardeners rest too for a few beers of course haha. So anyways, here's our take on the Cannon Brewery our second stop of the day!

So a little history, the following taken from wikipedia, I'm not going to go on as this is a fairly popular site!

Stones Brewery (William Stones Ltd) was a brewery founded in 1856 by William Stones in Sheffield, South Riding of Yorkshire, England, after he bought out his former partner's share of the business. Stones' success saw him die as one of the richest men in Sheffield. The brewery is famous nationwide for Stones Bitter, which was originally brewed at the Cannon Brewery, Sheffield in 1948 and was designed for Sheffield's steel workers. It was brewed there until the brewery's closure in 1999.

Anyways, it's picture time
